With the new leader class Jetfire does anyone think a leader Sky-Lynx would ever be possible in the Generations line? He has always been one of my favorites since and I loved opening him christmas morning 86'. Even though his G1 figure still looks nice a new version would be sweet.

I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but only if it had all the original modes.

Yeah it would be sweet to have all modes. But I would take it even if it was just the shuttle/dinobird with no separate lynx or just combined mode.

I've considered buying a second Encore one for my Classics display. The original figure still does pretty much everything I care for Skylynx to do.

I'd have to agree here. The G1 version is still a pretty good and unique figure. If they go ahead and do a Generations SKy Lynx, its gonna have to be pretty unique.

The main things they would have to work on for a Generations version would be a more heavily articulated neck and tail. At the exense of a motor feature, they could go ahead and add more articulation to the legs.

Yeah that's what I was saying, the original G1 Sky-Lynx is still sweet looking. He still looks pretty good next to current generations figures. I could do without the motorized feature in a new one for a better looking and articulated figure you are correct.

In the meantime, I'm using Prime Skylynx for my Classics lineup

I'd go bonkers for a Classics Sky Lynx!
I've been thinking about it for years and wondering what size would be the best for a proper Sky Lynx.
I would also like the "bird" mode to have plenty of articulation and extreme detailing. Exaggerated legs,wings and neck. A long flexible neck

I'd have the same reaction. As for size, it'd have to be a little bigger than Feral Rex when in the combined robot (super chicken?) mode for me to truly like it!
